The objective is to support family physicians and other primary care practitioners to provide after cancer care to their patients.  As you know, a patient's cancer experience does not end with treatment.

  • Discuss some of the considerations to take into account managing a patient after a cancer diagnosis and treatment, including chronic cancer.
  • Describe the surveillance protocols for common pediatric, hematological, and visceral cancers
